Michael Harvey: Latest magazines

Michael Harvey was born in Brazil and lived in Rio de Janeiro until the age of seven, when he was sent to school in the UK. He studied Physics and Astronomy at university, and this scientific background is very much visible in his work - the fascination with collections, the clinical lighting that gives his images an immediately recognisable sleekness and graphic quality. Michael knew straight out of university that his ambitions lay in photography and so he began working as an assistant in a studio that specialised in car photography.

Today, Michael’s studio is firmly embedded in the community of Brixton, an area of south London that has seen an influx of artists, social enterprises, creative agencies and independent shop owners in the last few years - particularly in Brixton Village, just five minutes from the studio. It is not hard to see that the urban and artistic vibrancy of the area contributes to Michael’s creative ideas.

Michael Harvey is a London-based photographer specialising in still life. Working out of his south London studio, his graphic aesthetic has led him to be a favourite with design and advertising agencies alike.

His work is defined by his striking flashes of colour and cool monochromatics. A master of light in both the studio and on location, this year Michael has been applying the same graphic eye and emotive lighting to portraiture - earning him an award in Creative Review's 2009 Photography Annual.

Fluent in five European languages, Michael's easy nature and enthusiasm for his work never fails to make his clients feel at home. Visit his website to see more of his commissioned and personal work.
